Museum of Obsolete Objects

The “site” is a beautiully designed collection of short, simple videos with lovely graphics and great sound. Dissapointingly, they have taken away the abilty to embedd the videos. Nonetheless, the site is very much worth a visit. The egg beater and rotary phone videos are strangly funny.

Something about these is reminiscent of the excellent mock science series “Look Around You.” If you havn’t seen any of Look Around You, prepare to lose a day.
